Subject: RE: The Concept of FREED Folkmusic
From an article on the psychology of fanaticism:
"A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject." –Winston Churchill
According to the article, Conrad, however, is not a true fanatic.
"A fanatic differs from a crank in that the latter term is typically associated with a position or opinion which is so far from the norm as to appear ludicrous and/or provably wrong."
FYI.
